Hello there! I'm new to this website. I started my 3d modelling career a few months back in May. Lately I've been thinking and please note this question is not to be taken seriously. Are Automotive Designers for popular vehicle manufacturers purposely making their cars more difficult to 3D model, haha. The reason I ask…

The render looks really sweet, but there are many inaccuracies in the AK itself, unless you say its a chinese replica that dosnt take things so seriously : P the whole contouring is off, and most of the parts are not accurate or are missing things. You should try looking closer at references, its the most common small arm…
Thanks for the continued comments, I appreciate the help. Praetor187: I am making a few assets to start the block out phase, I have not blocked it out yet. Alex: I am building a few of the simple assets to start blocking out the whole thing. I am building on the grid for modularity (I plan on using UDK), so I am going to…
You guys rock, thanks! I was shooting for as few polies as possible, just to see if I can make it look like a tank--a very cartoony, simple one that could even be used in a mobile game. Plus I'm using it as a UV model so that I can get my head around that. I'm using modo 103. Daz, I see what you're saying about the flow--I…
The Game I am making is a 2D Action Adventure game inspired by 90's Rare Games like Conker and Banjo & Kazooie. Music wise its more like Banjo, and story / Gameplaywise its more like Conker Badfurday. So if you have a thing for drawing cute things with big eyes, this is the game for you to work on. The Art I need can be…
Week Seven Day 1- I’m still working on the middle roof of the gate. Day 2- I finished the middle roof of the gate and one sample of DouGong. Day 3- Today, I was experimenting with the approaches from some inspiring tutorials on making pagoda roofs. I learned a lot of new tools in Maya, especially the MESH tool. However,…
^ I really hate to say this but i am in the boat of very low memory and i have to separate a LOT of tools and export them all one at a time is horrendous. Seems your under-powered laptop suffers a bit from the same? Would go the route of exporting and working on each item separately in it's own .ztl file before exporting,…
I'm having a hard time trying to grasp the tones of cel shading, they are so random and appear to have no continuity with each other. This is either a technical question or an artistic one, it's over udk, but not on how to implement it in udk, so I chose the parent folder. My cel shader in udk looks like this. Its a light…
